Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 395: Chapter 364: Five Small Cities

Monte did not agree with Rocky’s idea at all!

How could they possibly set a small Sky City as a target? Where was such an opportunity?

In a large-scale war of this level, neither the Sky Alliance nor the enemy would allow small Sky Cities to be sent to their deaths for nothing.

This could be seen from the intelligence provided by the Shadow Alliance; at the beginning of the war, a large number of small Sky Cities indeed participated in the battles, a measure of helplessness caused by the enemy’s sudden attack. However, once the war’s situation had stabilized, the Sky Alliance had withdrawn all small Sky Cities from the frontlines.

Now, only medium Sky Cities, at the very least, were qualified to join the battle on the frontline, and more often, it was large Sky Cities. Thus, there had been few recent reports of small Sky Cities being destroyed, as those had already retreated from the war.

Under these circumstances, Rocky’s desire to target small Sky Cities was simply not possible; there were no small Sky Cities available for him to choose.

“Are you sure?”

However, faced with Monte’s skepticism, Rocky simply smiled slightly and, while shaking his head, said, “You’ve all been deceived by the scale of this war.”

“It’s true that the scale of the war is immense, unprecedented even, but don’t forget that the higher the level of such a war, the greater the role small Sky Cities play.”

“On the frontline, it is indeed large and medium Sky Cities that play the main roles. But what about the rear? The transportation and supply of the battlefield—are these also the responsibility of large and medium Sky Cities? Does the enemy have so many large and medium Sky Cities to use?”

After making his point, Rocky picked up the information about the Mairente Family and handed it to Liliya.

“Take a good look at the content of this information.”

Upon receiving the report handed over by Liliya, Monte was initially confused, then he read it again. After he finished, he passed it to Lin Feng beside him and, subsequently, everyone relayed the information in turn.

“See?”

After everyone took another look at the Mairente Family’s information, Rocky continued, “The information is clear. Apart from Atted’s Machine City, the Mairente Family has come out in full force, with all of their Sky Cities participating in this great war. Except for the two medium Sky Cities in Backhill Village, all other Sky Cities are within the Tulip City War Zone.”

“Among these, two large Sky Cities and five medium Sky Cities are responsible for the frontline, while the remaining five small Sky Cities are in charge of supply and transportation. These five small Sky Cities are our targets.”@@novelbin@@

Having said this, Rocky finally revealed his true objective, which was to target the Mairente Family’s small Sky Cities!

As Monte had worried earlier, in a war of this magnitude, only large or medium Sky Cities could join the frontline battle, leaving no room for small Sky Cities—a fact Rocky was well aware of, but it was precisely what he was hoping for.

If small Sky Cities were to participate in the frontline battle, then Thunderhawk City would have no opportunity to engage. But with the current situation where small Sky Cities could only be involved in logistical support and only operate in the rear of the battlefield, doesn’t this provide him and Thunderhawk City with a chance?

The strength of Thunderhawk City may not compare with large or medium Sky Cities, but among the small Sky Cities, Thunderhawk City’s power was certainly outstanding. So, as long as the right target and the right timing were chosen, the possibility of annihilating a small Sky City was not out of the question!

This was exactly Rocky’s plan.

“Xuanwu City, Huanglong City, Zhouchen City, Hongshou City, Riming City; these five small Sky Cities of the Mairente Family are our targets for this battle.”

“According to the intelligence provided by the Shadow Alliance, among these five small Sky Cities, Xuanwu City is the largest, with a population of nine thousand, and the smallest is Hongshou City, with a population of only four thousand. The sizes of the remaining three Sky Cities fall in between these two. Currently, all five Sky Cities are located in the Tulip City War Zone, and are all responsible for transporting supplies.”

“Our target is to strike at one of these five Sky Cities!”

After stating this, Rocky finally looked at the people around him.

Upon hearing everything he said, Liliya and the others all furrowed their brows, as if considering the feasibility of such a plan. After waiting a few minutes, they turned towards Rocky and finally nodded in agreement.

They felt that Rocky’s idea indeed had a considerable chance of success.

With the strength of Thunderhawk City, if they only targeted small Sky Cities responsible for transportation and supply, the risk would be much reduced, and the success rate would be greatly increased. Hence, it was indeed feasible.

“Very well.”

Seeing that everyone agreed with his idea, Rocky breathed a sigh of relief and then issued his commands, “Liliya, immediately activate Thunderhawk City’s flight mode and head to the Tulip City War Zone.”

“Aileen, go contact the Shadow Alliance again, and ask them to provide as much detailed intelligence on the five small Sky Cities as possible.”

“Monte, find Glan and ask him to get in touch with Lord Wilton to see if Lord Wilton can provide some information about the enemy’s supply lines.”

“Felly, get the fleet ready.”

“Yes!”

“Yes.”

“Alright.”

Once Rocky had issued a series of orders, everyone in the room immediately took their leave from the study, carrying out their respective tasks as Rocky had instructed.

After everyone had gone, Rocky sat back in his chair.

Sitting there, he thoughtfully gazed at the world map, staring for a long time before he abruptly stood up and swiftly left the room…

And so, after staying in the Skybreaker Peak airspace for over half a month, Thunderhawk City finally activated its flight mode again and slowly departed the area.

With the departure of Thunderhawk City, the defense of Backhill Village was entirely handed over to the Alliance; this was a reluctant move for Rocky, but with the current strength of Thunderhawk City, there was no way he could participate in any frontal battle, which meant he couldn’t defend Backhill Village anyhow. The only option was to entrust it to the Alliance.

Fortunately, from the current situation, the Skybreaker Peak airspace was not the main battlefield of the war. Despite Abraham leading a large army to the brink, as long as the stalemate continued, there was no great danger for Backhill Village.

So when Rocky left, he did so with a measure of peace of mind—whether he was at ease or not was irrelevant.

As for his next target, it was the fiercely contested Tulip Battle Zone, where the enemy was most numerous!
